TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY
• Excessive cooling may be harmful to your health and may consume more electricity.
• Block sunlight with blinds or curtains while you are operating the air conditioner.
• Keep doors or windows closed while you are operating the air conditioner.
• Adjust the direction of the air flow vertically or horizontally to circulate indoor air.
• Speed up the fan to cool or warm indoor air quickly, in a short period of time.
• Open windows regularly for ventilation as the indoor air quality may deteriorate if the air condition-
er is used for many hours.
• Clean the air filter once every 2 weeks. Dust and impurities collected in the air filter may block the
air flow or weaken the cooling / dehumidifying functions.

LEAKAGE TEST AND EVACUATION
15
ENGLISH
Preparation
Check that each tube(both liquid and gas side
tubes) between the indoor and outdoor units
have been properly connected and all wiring
for the test run has been completed. Remove
the service valve caps from both the gas and
the liquid side on the outdoor unit. Check that
both the liquid and the gas side service valves
on the outdoor unit are kept closed at this
stage.
Leakage test
Connect the manifold valve(with pressure
gauges) and dry nitrogen gas cylinder to this
service port with charge hoses.
CAUTION
Be sure to use a manifold valve for leakage
test. If it is not available, use a stop valve for
this purpose. The "Hi" knob of the manifold
valve must always be kept close.
- Pressurize the system to no more than
3,0 MPa with dry nitrogen gas and close
the cylinder valve when the gauge read-
ing reached 3,0 MPa. Next test for leaks
with liquid soap.
!
CAUTION
To avoid nitrogen entering the refrigerant
system in a liquid state, the top of the
cylinder must be higher than its bottom
when you pressurize the system. Usually,
the cylinder is used in a vertical standing
position.
!
- Do a leakage test of all joints of the
tubing(both Indoor unit and outdoor unit) and
both gas and liquid side service valves.
Bubbles indicate a leak. Be sure to wipe off
the soap with a clean cloth.
- After the system is found to be free of leaks,
relieve the nitrogen pressure by loosening
the charge hose connector at the nitrogen
cylinder. When the system pressure is
reduced to normal, disconnect the hose from
the cylinder.
Air and moisture remaining in the refrigerant
system have undesirable effects as indicated
below.
- Pressure in the system rises.
- Operating current rises.
- Cooling(or heating) efficiency drops.
- Moisture in the refrigerant circuit may freeze
and block capillary tubing.
- Water may lead to corrosion of parts in the
refrigeration system.
Therefore, the indoor/outdoor unit and con-
necting tube must be checked for leak tight,
and vacuumed to remove incondensible gas
and moisture in the system.

- Turn the valve stem of gas side valve counter-
clockwise to fully open the valve.
- Loosen the charge hose connected to the gas
side service port slightly to release the pressure,
then remove the hose.
- Replace the flare nut and its bonnet on the gas
side service port and fasten the flare nut secure-
ly with an adjustable wrench. This process is
very important to prevent leakage from the sys-
tem.
- Replace the valve caps at both gas and liquid
side service valves and fasten them tightly.
This completes air purging with a vacuum pump.

Never fail to have an individual power specialized for the air conditioner. As for the method of
wiring, be guided by the circuit diagram pasted on the inside of control box cover.
2
Provide a circuit breaker switch between power source and the unit.
3
The screw which fasten the wiring in the casing of electrical fittings are liable to come loose
from vibrations to which the unit is subjected during the course of transportation. Check
them and make sure that they are all tightly fastened. (If they are loose, it could give rise to
burn-out of the wires.)
4
Specification of power source
5
Confirm that electrical capacity is sufficient.
6
Be sure that the starting voltage is maintained at more than 90 percent of the rated voltage
marked on the name plate.
7
Confirm that the cable thickness is as specified in the power sources specification.
(Particularly note the relation between cable length and thickness.)
8
Never fail to equip a leakage breaker where it is wet or moist.
9
The following troubles would be caused by voltage drop-down.
- Vibration of a magnetic switch, damage on the contact point there of fuse breaking, distur-
bance to the normal function of a overload protection device.
- Proper starting power is not given to the compressor.

INSTALLATION GUIDE AT THE SEASIDE
If the outdoor unit is to be installed close to
the seaside, direct exposure to the sea wind
should be avoided. Install the outdoor unit on
the opposite side of the sea wind direction.
In case, to install the outdoor unit on the
seaside, set up a windbreak not to be exposed
to the sea wind.
- It should be strong enough like concrete to
prevent the sea wind from the sea.
- The height and width should be more than
150% of the outdoor unit.
- More than 70cm of space should be kept
between outdoor unit and the windbreak for
easy air flow.
Place with fluent water draining
- Install at a place with fluent water draining to
prevent damage from localized heavy rain and
avoid frequent flooded area.
SEASONAL WIND AND
CAUTIONS IN WINTER
- Sufficient measures are required in a snow
area or severe cold area in winter so that
product can operate well.
- Get ready for seasonal wind or snow in win-
ter even in other areas.
- Install a suction and discharge duct not to let
in snow or rain.
- Install the outdoor unit not to come in contact
with snow directly. If snow piles up and
freezes on the air suction hole, the system
may malfunction. If it is installed at snowy
area, attach the hood to the system.
- Install the outdoor unit at the higher installa-
tion console by 50cm than the average snow-
fall (annual average snowfall) if it is installed
at the area with much snowfall.
- Where snow accumulated on the upper part
of the Outdoor Unit by more than 10cm,
always remove snow for operation.

• Periodic ( more than once/year ) clean-
ing of the dust or salt particles stuck on
the heat exchanger by using water.
• Air conditioners should not be installed
in areas where corrosive gases, such as
acid or alkaline gas, are produced.
• Do not install the product where it could
be exposed to sea wind (salty wind)
directly. It can result corrosion on the
product. Corrosion, particularly on the
condenser and evaporator fins, could
cause product malfunction or inefficient
performance.
• If outdoor unit is installed close to the
seaside, it should avoid direct exposure
to the sea wind. Otherwise it needs
additional anticorrosion treatment on the
heat exchanger.
